Honestly it would make the game worse if they did that.

Every game would last as long as the game does now when there is extra time. Players are only so fit, the game would slow down.

It's been shown time and time again that it doesn't really work.

Suarez is my favorite player in the world. He gives zero fricks and will do whatever it takes to win. Wish we had 3 of him on the US team

I'm shocked 45 minutes have gone by and there haven't been an incident between Suarez and Pepe yet.

if it did, then Suarez wouldn't be faking a head injury, these apologists are morons.

You have to take the AWARD away for bush league tactics to remove bush league tactics. As long as there's at least a perceived advantage in doing so, POS players will be POS's. It's that simple

Your way would also reward teams, you moron. Every stoppage would be drawn out forever as teams talk tactics, get water, etc.

And then they’d add commercials

The interpretation of the rules is so vast and varied between refs that you'd have to define the rules more clearly to account for every situation to remove the possibility of advantageous situations. A clock doesn't remove that possibility, it just accounts for it in a way that the ref already should.

Y’all do realize the fourth official is the one that determines stoppage time and not the lead ref, right?

It does get out of hand, but that is not on the ref. What’s sad is when the refs allow flopping to go unpunished and Suarez has faked 3 head injuries in this game already. It’s ridiculous.

Yeah, sometimes when me and my friend are goofing off he'll punch me in the arm and I fall to ground holding my head. Really throws him for a loop.

With the technology we have today there’s no reason diving should go unpunished. I’m not talking the clipped heal but more what Suarez is known for. Faking head injuries should be discouraged because of the seriousness of real head injuries and how it impacts games and the health of the players.

The defender hit him in the upper back and you could see his head snap back from it.

Yes, we’ll go to the NFL way. Those matches don’t last three hours...

And have commercials during stoppages...

Agreed. He didn’t even get hit in the head. Him laying on the ground acting like a dying cockroach is an embarrassment to the sport. He should get yellow carded.

I’m calling bullshite. It was a foul and should have been called but no way did he hurt his head on that play. Neck maybe.
